Aurelia: I have loved this name since the first moment I heard it, years and years ago. I continue to like it because of it's sweet, old-fashioned sound and the Marc Aurelius thing (I love history). It's just a name that has no equal.

Antonia: if only my husband would get on board with this one

Wren: it goes with my "nature" name love

Lyra: Love Lyra--she is the alternate future version of She-Hulk ;)

Ellison: Emmeline is too close to Emerald and they share all the same nicknames. I like Ellison, even though it will be forever confused for Allison when spoken.

Delia: I just can't like Faye for some reason

Rory: Remi is cute cute, but that's why I picked it (Remy) for my (male) kitty cat. Rory is a nod to one of my favorite shows, "Doctor Who"

Mabel: I like this because of a goofy Goldfinger song.

Cordelia: This one is very close for me because Clementine has been OML for a long time; that being said, Cordelia is a little more formal, grows up better, and isn't burden with the "oh, my darlin" or fruit connotation.

Magnolia: Maren is really pretty and I like it a lot, but Magnolia has this whole southern charm and graceful beauty going for it, not to mention the lovable nicknames Maggie and Nola.

Sutton or Ellery: Both are cute, but I go with Ellery because Sutton has a lack of good nicknames (though it does honor one of my teachers from grade school)

Grey: I prefer it for a girl, but Mr. Garrison on South Park ruined the other for me

Bishop: Baylor is a pretty big college here (football!) as well as a hospital; it is kind of a statement if you use it on a baby

Cortez or Canaan: I like both...probably Canaan because of the biblical connotation

Azariah: Though I think -iah is better an ending on girls than on boys

Glenn: I like the old-fashioned charm, and Keller was a city near where I grew up (rival schools and all that)

Enoch: Sounds better with my last name

Stetson: I like the cowboy air

Thatcher, it's dignified

Otis or Ulysses: I actually like both...maybe Otis a tiny bit more tonight, but tommorrow it may well be Ulysses.
